Los Angeles Angels’ third baseman Anthony Rendon is set to undergo hip surgery, a major setback that could sideline him for a significant portion—if not all—of the 2025 MLB season. 😞
🔴 What Happened?
Rendon, who already missed the end of the 2024 season with an oblique strain, suffered a setback in his recovery, forcing him to opt for surgery.
📉 A Career Plagued by Injuries
Since his 2019 All-Star season, Rendon has struggled with injuries, never playing more than 58 games in a single season. His 2024 stats were among his worst:
⚾ Batting Average: .218
⚾ On-Base Percentage: .307
⚾ Slugging Percentage: .267
⚾ Home Runs: 0 in 57 games
🔮 What’s Next for the Angels?
With Rendon under contract through 2026, but his return uncertain, the Angels might need to explore other third base options. Could a trade or a young prospect step up in his absence?
